Everything Possible Songtext

von Flirtations

We have cleared off the table
The leftovers saved
Washed the dishes and put them away
I have told you a story
And tucked you in tight
At the end of your knock-about day
As the moon sets its sail
To carry you to sleep
Over the midnight sea
I will sing you a song
No one sang to me
May it keep you good company

You can be anybody that you want to be
You can love whomever you will
You can travel any country where your heart leads
And know I will love you still
You can live by yourself, you can gather friends around
You can choose one special one
But the only measure of your words and your deeds
Will be the love you leave behind when you're gone

Some girls grow up strong and bold
Some boys are quiet and kind
Some race on ahead, some follow behind,
Some grow in their own space and time
Some women love women
And some men love men
Some raise children, and some never do
You can dream all the day, never reaching the end
Of everything possible for you

Don't be rattled by names, by taunts or games,
But seek out spirits true
If you give your friends the best part of yourself,
They will give the same back to you

You can be anybody that you want to be
You can love whomever you will
You can travel any country where your heart leads
And know I will love you still
You can live by yourself, you can gather friends around
You can choose one special one
But the only measure of your words and your deeds
Will be the love you leave behind when you're gone
Oh, the love you leave behind when you're gone.
